Embryo quality is crucial for the success of IVF, with low-grade blastocysts (LGB) not receiving enough attention in existing scoring systems. Studies show that LGB have similar euploidy and pregnancy success rates after implantation, with no adverse effects on pregnancy or perinatal outcomes. Evidence for pregnancy outcomes is lacking for different grades of LGB, with most studies comparing all LGB as one category with optimal blastocysts.
Embryo quality is a key determinant of the success of IVF. Although the focus has been on selecting the best embryo for transfer, the classification of low-grade blastocysts (LGB) in existing scoring systems has received less attention. This is worrisome; embryo freezing allows optimal use of all created embryos, thus maximizing the cumulative live birth rate, which is arguably the most important outcome for infertile couples. A PubMed search was conducted in August 2020, using ?(((?poor-quality? OR ?poor quality?) OR (?low-grade? OR ?low grade?)) AND (?embryo? OR ?blastocyst?)) AND (?pregnancy? OR ?live birth?)?. This scoping review shows that LGB have similar euploidy and pregnancy success rates after implantation and have no adverse effects on pregnancy or perinatal outcomes. Evidence for pregnancy outcomes is lacking for different grades of LGB, with most studies clustering all LQB as one to compare with optimal blastocysts.
